EDUC8846 Summer 2012 Class Wiki


The image I want you to have as you work through this class is to be hooded at graduation as a Ph.D.!!! What an amazing vision for you to have as you move forward. This quarter please invite your mentor to work with you as you develop your ideas for your dissertation with me. While I will give you feedback, the ultimate decisions about your study are up to your committee.

In this wiki each of you will create a page for your work on your main project. You will create only one page on our wiki. If you create additional pages, I will delete them. This will enable each of us to review the work of others without having to search for wikis around the web. I hope you find this satisfactory.

Click on New Page to create your personal page. Please type your name at the top of your page and save the page. This way your wiki page will be identified with your name for easy retrieval. Once you have saved your page, you can delete your name and put anything you like on your page following the instructions in our course forum.

Your working groups for the wiki work are as follows: Please note that this is only a starting point and that you can read and respond to as many of your classmates as you like. When a classmate or I leave a note for you, please respond.

Group 1: Burling, Jardim, Medastin, Carey
Group 2: Carroll, King, Loadholt, Middleton
Group 3: Herlong, Korte, Moore, Winterhalder

As you develop your ideas throughout the quarter, I hope we canB help you move toward having many of your ideas for your dissertation focused to the point you can have positive conversations with your mentor. Please engage your mentor as you work through this course. If your mentor is reviewing your ideas as we work with them, it is possible for you to have your dissertation Prospectus finished at the end of this quarter.
